Comic for Wednesday, September 22nd
I continue my super secret no spelling error technique it seems.
Every been pounced on by a dragon? Probably dangerous π
If you didn’t see it yet, there is a new sketchbook art up – it’s… a little weird. The idea was to draw one of my characters like I was trying a human instead of a comic character. The eyes are still far too large and the art skill is too low, but I threw it up there as I thought it might be entertaining to you people π I probably should have like… used a real person for reference or something sensible, but I’m rarely sensible.
In rambling news…
Bought a bookshelf from Ikea. It came with no screws. I think they think they are funny, or it’s the worlds most dangerous bookshelf to stand near. I suspect further negotiation will be necessary. And here I was trying to avoid the extra hassle of getting a used one π
One of the games I’m always working on is close to something that might someday ready for release. Is that vague enough? I think that’s vague enough.
Never bring a gun to a dragon fight.
A dragon fighting a robot. I approve. ^^
I think the sketchbook looks really nice… it is not quite realism but I really like it. I really get the feeling I have a bit more idea what Kally looks like now. ^^
Haha π Don’t worry, the comic is just getting rolling when it comes to the fantastical and intriguing! π
Thank you for the kind words. π
Silly robot! Bullets don’r bother eidos creations. ^^
And that is a perfectly serviceable dragon. π
Re: Sketchbook Kally. The proportions are a bit off (eyes too big, like you said) but all the parts are good. A portrait artist friend of mine once told me that he always starts with the eyes, then matches the other features to them. Her eyes are very well drawn, btw. π
These bullets do more damage to an ethereal Eidos creations than normal ones, but it doesn’t help much when Kally is in control of it; she can keep it regenerating from almost anything. I guess the real test would be if Mium could disperse it like Ila’s hand as he’s a little more effective than burst rounds; maybe we’ll know someday! π
As for the dragon, these things always look cooler before I have to draw them. I really need to spend more time working on effects and how I draw that sort of stuff, but – hey, that’s the story of life. Everything could use more time π At least the effects have gotten better since the comic started, so there’s that π
Thanks for the kind words and thoughts on the sketchbook. I think over the months I’ve been drawing I’ve just sort of forgotten what eyes look like on a face π It was honestly better than I expected, but is a long way from perfect. It was fun though, so I’ll probably do more.
